Because the hotel is an old-fashioned building, there is no elevator and no sound insulation. At night, people can hear people going up and down the stairs.

Slightly confused about the ventilation system, very warm in the room, thought reducing the temperature on the control panel would cool the air down but, not the case. It was, on inspection, used to warm up the room. Opening the windows worked the best to cool the room. Found this out on the day we checked out! Overall found the hotel and food very satisfying, décor and ambiance very pleasing. All staff courteous and helpful.
